Rowenta Eco Intelligence Steam Iron

Most Read

The Eco Intelligence steam iron from Rowenta is our top pick for an energy-efficient model. This premium appliance promises energy savings thanks to its innovative soleplate design; in Eco and Eco Boost modes, the iron puts out less steam (meaning the plate should lose less heat), and the vapor that is produced is captured in grooves in the sole for more concentrated wrinkle-fighting power. Nonetheless, we found that on average, the soleplate still struggled to maintain its heat, meaning you might have to go over wrinkles a couple times to iron them out. Still, the Rowenta did a stellar job getting wrinkles out of hard-to-iron fabrics like silk and linen, and performed well on cotton too. We found the iron easy to maneuver around buttons and other hard-to-press places and its sturdy base means you won't have to worry about tipping when you walk away.
